on

24th
January
after
'accidentally
drowning'
in
a

the
cause
of
her
death.

shattered
millions
of
her
fans
and
left
the
entire
film
fraternity
in
deep
agony.
Since
a

have
been
sharing
their
fond
memories
of
the
veteran
actress.
Amongst
them
is
Sridevi's
'Karma'
co-star
Jackie
Shroff.
Here's
what
he
had
to
say-
Jackie
Was
Always
In
Awe
Of
Sridevi
He
was
quoted
as
saying
to
Pinkvilla,
"Was
always
in
awe
of
her.
Used
to
be
sitting
in
some
corner
with
her
mom
or
sister,
but
in
front
of
the
camera
it
was
fireworks."
She
Will
Always
Remain
Our
Superstar
Bappi
Lahiri
was
earlier
quoted
as
saying,
"Never
say
goodbye!
She
will
always
remain
an
integral
part
of
our
industry.
She
will
always
remain
our
superstar," adding
that
he
would
like
to
dedicate
the
song
'Kabhi
Alvida
Na
Kehna'.
Heart-Breaking!
"I
still
can't
believe
she
is
no
more
with
us,
my
heart
sinks
thinking
about
it."
Gone

Soon
Tamil
actress
and
politician
Khushboo
Sundar
said,
"I
am
numbed,
it's
yet
to
sink
in
that
she
is
no
more
with
us.
Most
of
us
are
still
in
denial
mode...the
most
beautiful
actor
who
could
put
any
hero
to
shame
with
her
charm
and
talent.
Gone
too
soon."
She
Will
Continue
To
Inspire
Millions
"Warm
and
beautiful
person
from
within,
her
childlike
laughter
plays
like
a
chime
in
my
head.
My
heart
goes
out
to
her
husband
Boneyji
and
their
two
young
daughters
on
the
threshold
of
what
the
mother
always
dreamt
about.
As
a
woman,
she
will
continue
to
inspire
the
millions
who
have
dreams
in
their
eyes.
She
lived
with
dignity
and
commanded
respect
till
the
end."
Bidding
Farewell
This
morning,
thousands
of
fans
stood
outside
the
Celebration

Inside,
Sridevi lay
in
a
transparent
casket,
draped
in
a
gorgeous
red

gold
Kanjeevaram,
garlanded
with
roses.
Standing

to
the
casket
was
her

would
be
performed.
